Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. Winslade (illustrator). 1st Edition. " Here is a rollicking story of the sea for little boys, and girls will enjoy it just as much. It is a lively, stirring tale of pirates on the Spanish Main, thrilling but never frightening, told by a sailor with a glorious sense of humour." Book is in Very Good condition, tightly bound and with lovely bright illustrations. Dustjacket hasn't fared as well, a bit tattered and with some sellotape marks, small amounts of loss but now protected by an archival cover. There is a gift inscription from 1953 and both a stamp and an inked name -- from the same person, the recipient, all on the first endpage. Australian shipping may be cheaper than the Abe quote, which is for a standard hardcover. Shipping can be combined. All overseas buyers need to contact me to check shipping rates prior to ordering as there is currently no Economy Air option for shipping outside Australia. Extraordinary times.
